Sad Day (The Blues) Tea Recipe
The Blues Tea Recipe | A Tea for a Sad Day
Here's one of my favorite tea recipes for sad days. This is a spin on an old recipe for combating the blues. It just feels like a warm hug in mug. Grab your herbs, your tea pot, a cup and a blanket. Brew this sad ay tea, snuggle into your favorite spot and read or listen to something soul soothing while you sip your tea.
Reflection:
In the hush of dawn, where shadows sigh, A melancholic whisper stirs the sky.
Gray clouds gather, heavy with yesterdays, Casting a veil on the light that plays.
Silent streets where laughter danced, Now echo with dreams that fate has chanced.
A gentle breeze carries the weight of loss, Like memories drifting, a tempest tossed.
The sun peeks through, but the warmth feels shy, As if the world itself mourns a goodbye.
Petals fall from blossoms that once bloomed bright, A tapestry woven with threads of twilight.
Upon the lake, a rippling tear, Mirrors the heart's unuttered fear.
Nature weeps in a symphony deep, While the world pauses, respecting the grief we keep.
Yet in this sorrow, a seed is sown, From shadows of sadness, strength is grown.
For every dark hour shall yield to the light, And even the heaviest heart finds its flight.

1 teaspoon organic Damiana leaf
